Salt Based Water Softeners

Traditional water softeners developed in 1938 using salt or potassium for regeneration.

Does not filter water

Requires constant addition of salt or potassium to water

Removes vital minerals

Salt residual left in home water makes water feel slippery or slimy – a common complaint is, “I feel like I can’t wash the soap off”

Requires reverse osmosis under sink to filter salt from drinking water at one faucet

Reverse osmosis wastes from 3-5 gallons (depending on model) for each 1 gallon flowing from the faucet

Reverse osmosis requires filter changes

Regenerates up to 3 times per week; wastes as much as 150 gallons per week

Regenerated waste water contains salt and cannot be used on grass or vegetation which it would kill. Many communities are now becoming brine restricted; no longer allowing salt laden waste water to be put down drains because it eventually pollutes ground water

Requires continuous maintenance and repair costs

Many people continue to purchase bottled water for drinking and cooking, which tends to be very costly

The inconvenience of lugging bottles of water from store and sometimes running out, inhibits the habit of drinking water.
